Firearms Instruction

Welcome to Learn2ShootStr8.com Firearms Training!

What we intend on focusing on at Learn2ShootStr8 is Safety Awareness in regards to how you handle your firearm, teaching you how to then Accurately place your rounds on target all the time, all while demonstrating to you how much FUN shooting is for anyone who is interested in doing it.

A little bit about me, my name is David White, I first learned how to shoot when my father took me out to the makeshift range that him and some guys from the Police Department he worked for set up on a farmers land in the town they worked. I was about 12 years old, and learned to shoot with his service weapon at the time which was a Smith & Wesson 686 in .357 Magnum. That for some will give you an idea of how long ago it was. I sporadically got to target shoot from time to time after that.

About 6 years ago when the wife and I had to move south and landed in Delaware where we live today I found out how easy it was here to purchase my own firearms, so for the last 6 years I have gotten more heavily involved in improving my shooting skills. I enjoy it so much I have set out to learn the art of teaching others how to improve there own skills in shooting. To do this I have now become certified through the USCCA and NRA as a Certified Defensive Pistol Instructor, primarily right now for pistols only. I do have plans to get my Rifle Instructor Certification in the next year though as well. I am also seeking to obtain my USCCA Instructor Certification this year as well, I have plans to do it hopefully before June of this year.

I have plans in the coming year to compete in USPSA, IDPA and GSSF competitions as well and hope to extend that into coaching others who are interested in getting into the shooting sports.

My goal with my business isn’t to get rich, but to introduce more people to the shooting sports and show them that shooting is FUN and SAFE.

Below you will find all of the services that we currently are offering to our potential students. We will be adding more class offerings shortly.
